Welcome to Our Scotland, the podcast where we take 24 hours in Scotland, add in teleportation, time travel and anything else we please to conjure up the day of our dreams.
My name is Alison Fraser and I love all things Scotland, the people, the food, the music and the places and my guests are people just like me.
In this episode I’m joined by crime fiction author Wendy Jones
As well as being the author of the DI Shona McKenzie mysteries Wendy is the President of the Scottish Association of Writers, and a writing and marketing coach helping writers and authors realise their literary dreams.
Wendy is going to take us on an adventure around Scotland - and with a bonus side trip.
